If you can get by with a DRW, buy one. I say get by because once upon a time a DRW would not work for me. There are disadvantages, but no doubt DRWs are more stable with more weight.
I was able to drive my SRW and get by because I carried the minimum including minimum water/stuff/etc. I also added 19.5s to give a bit more room for error. I no longer have to worry about what I carry and I have towed a fully loaded TT with no issues behind the TC/truck with no issues.
Also, you won’t know the true weight until you weigh the vehicle with TC/boat. You are on the ragged edge now. That’s fine if you are planning on only going minimal distances.
